Bibliographical essay: Seeing into the trees; why EU personnel and professionals studies are flourishing and why they matter
Abstract
In a detailed bibliographical essay, the editors examine the way in which EU personnel and professionals studies have developed and evolved over time, gradually branching out into different disciplines and different cultural traditions. They chart the way the literature has followed the growth and evolution of the EU itself, including more institutions, agencies and other bodies, more policy areas and more member states. They argue for an interdisciplinary approach whilst also pushing at the boundaries of different disciplines, concluding that such approaches can only strengthen the general impact of EU studies.
